[June 18, 1910. 
Y OU know quail—noisy winging bumble bees! 
They scared you green in your novice days 
as they broke from cover. They were 
almost out of range by the time you recovered 
and got your bearings. 
You know that sometimes, even to-day, you 
don’t get settled down until the whizzing birds 
are almost too far to reach. Then you wish for a 
gun that isn’t just “good enough”—wish for a gun 
that kills clean and far and sure. 
Any man who swings a Lefever true on a pair 
of quail at long range does not feel a heart flutter 
for the result. He knows it —Two Clean Kills. 
The reason Lefever Guns kill clean and sure 
and far is Lefever Taper Boring-. 
Taper Boring is only one of 19 exclusive ad¬ 
vantages of 
LEFEVER 
SHOT GUNS 
Our catalogue will tell you of barrel rigidity 
and take-up unequalled in any other gun. Also 
tells about other things you must know if you are 
to invest your money right. It is worth sending for.

GREATER NEW YORK CUP. 
The Greater New York cup was for amateur four-man 
teams whose members were of clubs which were mem¬ 
bers of the association, members of teams to be front 
the eounty, or adjacent counties, in which the club is 
located. To be shot for in the State shoots from 1S09 
to 1913, inclusive, five years. The most wins in those 
years determines the winner. Fifty targets per man. 
An optional sweepstake was run with this event, $3 en¬ 
trance, high guns. The Bergen Beach Gun Club, of 
Brooklyn, added $25 to the sweepstake, and $25 to the 
purse. There also was a distinct apathy in respect to 
this cup, and the generosity of the donors seemed to 
have scant appreciation. Quite a bit of canvassing was 
necessary to obtain a fair show of competition. Three 
clubs were represented, two of which had two teams 
each entered. Onondaga won with the excellent total 
of 184 out of 200. Buffalo Atidubon No. 1 was second 
with 176. Bergen Beach No. 2 was third with 175.

DEAN RICHMOND TROPHY. 
The Dean Richmond cup, by progressive stages, ap¬ 
parently has outlived its purpose and its usefulness. 
The original cup—the present cup is not the original— 
was designed as an emblem of the three-man live-bird 
championship. Toward the end of the live-bird shoot¬ 
ing, interest in the cup languished. When live-bird 
shooting in this State was prohibited by statutes, the 
competition was changed to targets, something foreign 
to the original purposes of the cup. To secure compe¬ 
tition, a lot of canvassing and pleading and urging was 
necessary, with the result that three clubs were repre¬ 
sented out of the multitude of clubs existing in the 
State, and this trophy is held forth as representing the 
club State. championship. The important associations 
of this cup belong to a past age. In its time and 
relations, it was all that it purported to be, but at me 
present time it belongs to the things that are moss- 
grown and moribund. It would be much better to settle 
upon a final competition for this fossil, and retire 
it for good and all from its farcical annual appearances 
as a championship emblem. The trend of competition 
seems to run to individualism, or pooling and cash. 
Four teams contested for this cup, two of which were 
of the Audubon club. Its team No. 1 was victor with 
72 out of 75, Kelsey breaking 25 straight, W right scoring 
one less, and Talcott following close up with 23. On¬ 
ondaga was second with 70. The conditions were -as 
follows: Teams must be members of clubs which are in 
good standing, and each member of a team to be a 
resident of the same county in which the club is located; 
25 targets per man; 16yds. rise; entrance $10, targets 
included; purse to be divided 50, 30 and 20 per cent, 
class shooting; holder of cup to have same insured for 
$ 1,000 against burglary and fire, in favor of the as¬ 
sociation. 
It will be noted that the limitation to membership on 
a team is both a club and county limitation; but as 
the cup is a State trophy, there is no equitable reason 
for the county limitation. It is a State trophy, and 
should be governed by State lines only as to territory 
relating lo club membership. County lines have noth¬ 
ing whatever to do with the organization, activities and 
purposes of any average gun club, any more than street 
lines, or town lines.
